| Inspection |
|
| 1. |
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
|
| 2. |
Install the refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging system.
(Refer to Air Conditioning System - "Repair procedures")
|
| 3. |
Turn ON the ignition switch, put into operation the air conditioner.
|
| 4. |
Calculate the reference voltage of the Recovery/Recycle/Recharge machine
high pressure value using the formula below.
|
| 5. |
Measure the sensor output voltage between terminal "1" and "2".
|
| 6. |
If the reference voltage value and the sensor output voltage value are
close to each other, the air conditioner pressure transducer is normal.
|
| 7. |
If 0V is output or the reference voltage value and sensor output voltage
value are not close to each other, replace the air conditioner pressure
transducer.
|
| Replacement |
| 1. |
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
|
| 2. |
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/charging station.
|
| 3. |
Disconnect the A/C pressure transducer connector (A).
|
| 4. |
Remove the A/C pressure transducer (A).
|
| 5. |
Install in the reverse order of removal.

Description The A/C Pressure Transducer (APT) converts the pressure value of high pressure line into voltage value after measuring it.
Description The evaporator temperature sensor will detect the evaporator core temperature and interrupt compressor relay power in order to prevent evaporator from freezing by excessive cooling.
Description The photo sensor is located at the center of the defrost nozzles. The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to sunlight) diode. The solar radiation received by its light receiving portion, generates an electromotive force in proportion to the amount of radiation received which is transferred to th
